Synopsis

Born to be Blue is a reimagining of jazz legend Chet Baker's life in the 60's. When Chet (with talent to burn and movie-star looks that have him dubbed the “James Dean of Jazz“) stars in a film about himself, a romance heats up with the African American female lead, the enigmatic Jane. Production is shelved though when a vicious beating means he may never play music again. Jane challenges Chet to avoid self-destruction, stay clean, and mount a musical comeback against all the odds.
